Bra On A Black Gs 400
dcfish replied to geminilover112's topic in 93 - 05 Lexus GS300 / GS400 / GS430
I have had a bra on my G3 since 2001 and am satisfied. Check my avitar B) The bra was custom made by Colgan Custom. When I first looked for a bra Colgan didn't make one for the GS but they made one and it took about 2 weeks to receive. ;) http://www.colgancustom.com/ ← Why didn't you go with the Lexus one? I'm about to buy one from the dealer, $200, because I didn't want an off brand. What was your reason? ← I looked at alot of bras [ including lexus ] and found the colgan to be the best bra for the $ and there quality is top notch . I have them on both of my LEXUS and myfather-in law has colgans on three camry's and his LS400 for 5 years now and he lives in AZ. and never had a problem. You have to keep them clean and protected and they will stay like new for years. -
Bra On A Black Gs 400

2 piece sport, you can see the grille through the mesh although you could remove it or ask when ordering if they will make one without the mesh. -

I Wonder Why I Can't Post A For Sale Item?
dcfish replied to mkiv1000's topic in 92 - 00 Lexus SC300 / SC400
I advise you to check with the moderators to post for sale items with less than 20 posts. ;) -
Put it on a keychain and keep it in your pocket like you would if it were a key. ;)

Radio + Trunk Mount Cd Changer Installation
dcfish replied to derby2*'s topic in Workshop Tutorials - Lexus How To Guides
The cd changer goes on the drivers side behind the wheel well , The wiring harness should be there. If there was never a cd changer in the trunk then check for the wiring harness up behind the trunk liner , look good lexus hides them well. Good Luck If you need a wiring harness leave your email. -
Beautiful ! B)

I have been contimplating this mod for about a year. It is a short air intake cut to fit a stock airfilter box. The install went very smooth and took me about an hour from start to finish. I had a polished 3" short air intake laying around and a K&N drop in filter. I decided to take out the stock intake from the throttle body to the airfilter box and custom fit the polished tube to take it's place. Worked out really well I can feel a better throttle response and acceleration is improved and it really didn't get that much louder [ I prefer it that way ] so here are some pix of the final product. Tell me what you think. B)

93 Sc400 Cd Changer--error Message
dcfish replied to sonny746's topic in 92 - 00 Lexus SC300 / SC400
You have the 12 disc changer and when they go there are no more parts available to repair it with. The option is upgrading to a pioneer 6 disc from a es300. I have sold many of these and they work perfect [ plug and play ] so if you don't go aftermarket I have a 6 disc pioneer for you. -
**************the Headlight Mod**********
dcfish replied to bathieutu's topic in Lexus Modifications Forums
What is the mod ? You should resize the pix, TOO BIG. -
Was there any cutting of the stock transmission lines with the cooler install ? Nice job I am thinking of putting one on my 98 GS3.
-
Isn't the gas tank right behind the rear seats in the sc ? That could be the source.

I work with this guy who has a 40th edition mustang [ 265 hp ] He can't beleive a lexus 400 puts out more hp than his mustang. Everytime I look at him he just shakes his head and I laugh. Just thought this was a good story.

Sc 400 Nakamichi Cd Changer Question

I just changed the batteries on my two master keys- 98 GS300 [ going on a trip ] and sure enough one key broke where the screw is :cries: and now the screw doesn't hold it together but the other key is in perfect working order . I'll use the broken one for a backup. I am currently holding it together with scotch tape , How cheap is that ?
-
Yes you can have it bench tested, The amp is on the passenger side behind the glovebox. If you need one I have one .

I have MICHELINS on both of my cars. XGTV4'S on my GS3 and MX'S on the ES3. Get at least V'S better off with Z'S. ;)

Compliments , Back in the day when they first were doing van conversions the moonroof was a stationary tinted window on the roof, Then they made the window slide to the rear of the vehichle and thus named the sunroof. I am going back 30 years at least. Come to think of it the first sunroof that I remember tilted up. Oh well !!!!

Do a search and search and search and ...........................................That info is well documented on these forums. B) As a side note all newbies should exhaust all other options before posting.
